Exodus

Well I was reading in my bible today and so far I’ve gotten to the book of Exodus, and it was talking about after Moses had led the Israelites out of Egypt and God wanted Aaron and his sons to become priest for him and it was going on and on about everything that had to be done for the consecrations and it was supposed to take seven days to complete and tons of things that had to be built and everything had to be done a certain way. Then I started thinking God wants you to do something he doesn’t want you to go about and solving or doing something your own way but he wants you to do it in the way he tells you he just wants you to listen and follow his commands.

For example when Moses was told to call water out of a rock for God’s people well Moses didn’t follow what God said. He struck the rock with his staff now in this instance God allowed the water to come out of the rock but if you do something your own way that doesn’t mean it will work out like you want it to. Maybe nothing will happen, or maybe everything will go down spiral and turn out the worst way possible. You never know but that’s just what I had on my mind today.

God Bless You in everyway today!!!

So Far So Good

Well so far this week has been really good, but the fun ends tomorrow if I were even having fun at all. My summer always consist of babysitting from dusk til dawn. But it ends tomorrow cause then we start youth band practice and we don't even have a lead guitar of a keyboard player so it's going to be hard no having anyone play lead unless the guy who is supposed to play guitar miraculously shows up then that would be really nice.

Then Fine Arts is in a couple of weeks. I really need to work harder on learning my sermon, but I don't know why but it just seems hard but I'm really going to try. Although I am looking forward to fine arts cause I know it's going to be a blast I mean come on PlanetShakers is going to be there again this year and they are amazing.

After fine arts though we get back on a friday right after that school starts on monday, but I really am looking forward to that because I haven't seen most of them in a really long time and I can't wait to see and hang out with all my friends cause I mean come on who doesn't have awesome friends?

But on top of all this I still need to find a job. I know I've filled out like 10 applications already this week so I'm hoping I get a call back from one of them so wish me luck.

God Bless You!!!

Wow

Hey sorry I didn't realize I hadn't posted in so long but my internet has been actin crazy and whenever I had anything worth talkin about my internet was down and all messed up. Then I kindof forgot my password for my blog but I think we should be good now since I have it all figured out. So here's what's been going on lately.

Well were getting a youth band started at my church and I think that's kindof cool cause I've known the drummer and the bass player my whole life so it's really cool. I get to sing along with two new friends who are pretty cool. I think we have a lead guitar player but I'm not quite sure cause I haven't seen him at church for a couple of weeks, but what I have heard him play he's not bad but he has a lot he can learn from other people I know. We had our first practice a couple of weeks ago and it went pretty well. It was so annoying though cause we all knew this one song and it wasn't like we were learning a new one but we sang and played "Trading my Sorrows" for an hour and a half, but were going to start learning some new songs this next Wednesday at practice.

Our youth group is getting ready to start raising money to go to Youth Convention this year. I'm so excited for it to cause it's back in Nashville again which is a big help which means we won't have to stay in a hotel but it's a lot of fun walking around the mall.

National Fine Arts is coming up in August and I am so excited. I'm really kind of nervous too because there are so many talented people there it makes you nervous.

Hope ya'll have a great day and God bless you
